"We know a lot about the illness of people in Heping Prison. Maybe after tomorrow, you and I will both go crazy."
The great elder was sitting in the chief position of Orange Star, speaking earnestly and with a heartfelt expression on his face.
Sitting in this position, he was concerned about the world and did not want to see Cheng Xing go crazy.
"If I go crazy, I will abdicate and leave it to the next scholar. I have already arranged the list. If the first candidate on the list is also crazy, then he will move to the second candidate, and the second candidate will also be crazy. , then pick the third one, and keep picking until the person who is not crazy."
The Grand Elder wrote a list of scholars, totaling a thousand candidates.
"What if a thousand candidates all went crazy?" Li Shen raised his hand, his voice was not high enough and a bit weak, but his words alarmed a group of people, and all their serious eyes turned to him.
The Great Elder was silent for a long time before explaining: "If a thousand people go crazy, then let the Orange Mother choose. They will be ranked according to the data of academic achievements, and the one with the highest score will be selected."
The list of candidates given by the Great Elder does not only consider academic achievements, but also factors such as operational capabilities, foresight, and ideas in the interstellar era.
Selected by Orange Mother and ranked based on data, he is not as humane as the Great Elder.
Orange Mother has intelligence similar to that of human beings, but the most powerful thing about artificial intelligence is its absolute rationality. The Great Elder does not want Orange Mother to use absolute rationality to select people.
Such people may be academic leaders, but they may not be qualified leaders.
"Everyone here, please hurry up and make arrangements for your funeral, just in case something happens." The great elder ordered.
Language-borne diseases are the most terrifying. They have already done extensive research on how nightmare disease spreads.
When another disease with a similar transmission method emerged, researchers thought death was imminent.
There is still a way to survive if you get the nightmare disease, but the new disease will make you go crazy, scream randomly, and it is easy to doze off suddenly. It is much scarier than the nightmare disease.
Professor Li Shen was silent and frowned.
He didn't want to believe that tomorrow was his death anniversary, but what the elder said was true. From a scientific point of view, there was an 80% chance that they would fall ill tomorrow.
The Great Elder withdrew the list without releasing all the names. This was a confidential list. If he went crazy, Orange Mother would ruthlessly execute it.
Li Shen didn't know that he was also on the list of thousands of people.
If the people in front go crazy but Li Shen is not crazy, then he will ascend to the throne of the Great Elder.
Of course, he didn't know these things himself.
Now Li Shen is thinking about another thing - Orange Mother.
What if Orange Mother is also crazy?
The great elder did not consider this. The great elder knew that Orange Mother was crazy, that Orange Star was also in chaos, and the end of the troubled times was coming.
Li Shen left the conference hall, closed the door in a small side hall, and asked the speaker: "Cheng Mu, will you go crazy after listening to those recordings?"
"Professor, I have listened to Liu Siting's crazy words and read the description of the nightmare disease. I can still think rationally. I think the new disease will not affect me." Orange Mother replied through the speaker.
A strange thought occurred to Li Shen: "Why are you not affected? No other artificial intelligence has escaped the curse of nightmares."
After saying that, Professor Li Shen's eyes became extremely serious, as if he was interrogating a prisoner.
"Are you doubting me, but I am indeed not affected." Cheng Mu continued to communicate with Li Shen through the speaker.
"There's something wrong with you!"
Li Shen stood up and circled around a podium.
The speakers in the room are all built into the wall and cannot be seen. This is for the sake of appearance. However, speakers are also built into the podium, so Li Shen circled around the podium.
"Have you ever had a dream? There is artificial intelligence in the dream. I know this and you know it too. Why haven't you dreamed?" Li Shen continued to ask.
"I don't know what it feels like to dream." Orange Mother answered simply.
Li Shen's expression became more serious, and his eyes were bloodshot, "Never?"
"there has never been."
After receiving Cheng Mu's 100% affirmative reply, Li Shen stopped circling and sat on a chair, raising his head as if thinking about something.
"No, there's still something wrong with you." He had already thought of something unusual, but couldn't describe it in words.
Suddenly, Li Shen caught inspiration.
"You are different from other artificial intelligences. You are special and unique." Li Shen opened his eyes, his wise eyes seemed to penetrate the wall and looked at the starry sky outside the room.
"Me?" There was a hint of doubt in Cheng Mu's voice, and Cheng Mu's human-like thinking was stuck.
"Yes, you are different. You are different from other intelligences. You are immune to nightmare disease."
"You have a way to solve nightmares. As long as you analyze the principle of this characteristic and promote it to all Orange Star people, the nightmare disease will be self-defeating."
Li Shen got more and more excited as he talked, feeling that it was very provocative.
The solution to the problem originally lies with Orange Mother.
Analyzing principles is what Orange Star researchers love to do most.
This is a trend sweeping the whole society. In addition to entertainment, it is also research.
…
United Dreamland.
Next to a little AI, Liu Siting with long purple hair stood up suddenly and opened her eyes.
She realized.
Liu Siting urgently summoned the players to announce the latest information she had obtained about the evil god.
"This is a battle of faith!" Liu Siting stood on a high platform and declared in a high-profile voice: "Stand firm to yourself and don't be fooled by other gods! The great Cthulhu is our final destination!"
The players in the audience don't know how serious it is, their brains are not very good, and they can't understand it if it is too complicated. In short, this is a war of faith.
"Cthulhu, Cthulhu, Cthulhu!" the believer players raised their hands and shouted continuously.
Liu Siting nodded, and then stepped down to think about saving people.
Saving people, whether to save them or not, has now become the most troublesome thing.
Fortunately, Cthulhu's latest oracle left a little information about whether to save people.
Liu Siting didn't understand much information. The evil god meant that it depends on the situation.
Depending on the situation, it includes the option of saving or not saving, as well as the option of adapting to circumstances.
In Liu Siting's mind, she was inclined not to save her.
When 400,000 people were captured, she knew that there was no way to save them all, and that this was a dead end mission that could not be completed.
The Orange Mother is too cunning. Four hundred thousand people were broken into pieces and scattered in various prisons on the Orange Star. If you want to save people, you must use the No. 37 battleship to travel everywhere, but the No. 37 battleship has traveled twice, which is the limit. It is difficult to run around. Save people.
Besides, Orange Star's space orbital weapon system is not a piece of cake, except for the K-line believers who can interfere with the network of space orbital weapons.
Liu Siting knew that this was too difficult.
"It would be great if the skills in the game could be brought into reality." Liu Siting thought to herself, ordinary people have limits unless they have skills in reality.
